Php/mysql Developer Resume
Profile
I have been a full time PHP developer for the last six years. I currently operate a sole
proprietorship under the name Fiji Web Design. My main focus has been developing PHP
and MySQL based products for the Joomla CMS.
I work out of the Fiji Islands and am a U.S. Citizen looking to relocate to a warmer part of
the US. I am able to travel for face to face interviews at my own expense.
Experience
Most of my past work mainly involved the PHP CMSs, Joomla, Drupal and Wordpress. I am
well versed in every aspect of PHP5, OOP design patterns, testing/build/versioning tools,
and popular PHP development frameworks. I am also well versed in browser based
JavaScript and ActionScript.
Much of my open source development work requires code to run on many different PHP
setups and thus I have a lot of experience in writing platform independent, highly
distributable PHP code. However, I have also worked on very specific projects involving nondistribution
oriented code.
